Nobody does intensity like a Scorpio. No wonder their spirit colors are black and red. These shades reveal their bold and unyielding energy and create a passionate nail style specific to the season. Some might call these Scorpio nail ideas "too much". But since when did Scorpio care what other people think? These designs are for those who know who they are and aren't afraid to show it.
Scorpio’s Attributes
Those born from October 23 through November 21 are under the sign of Scorpio. It’s the eighth house of the zodiac that’s ruled by Pluto and Mars. Its element is water, the birthstones are opal and topaz, and flowers are geranium and hibiscus. In a nutshell, Scorpios are described as enthusiastic, independent, and alluring. If you think about it, they’ve got to be. They share their birthday with the changing of the seasons and the dimming of the daylight. Many cultures celebrate holidays related to death during this time.
How did a scorpion end up becoming a constellation in the first place? Those living in the northern hemisphere may be familiar with the constellation of Orion. It turns out that Scorpio killed Orion to defend all the other animals from him, and Zeus laid Orion to rest among the stars. Then, the earth goddess, Gaia, rewarded Scorpio by placing him in the heavens, too.
The first Scorpio nail idea puts a jeweled scorpion front and center on the middle finger. That’s an interesting choice because of the cultural implications. The background consists of long, coffin-shaped nails in a soft neutral hue. Two starbursts and a few black accents complete the look.
If you like this bold Scorpio birthday nail art, we carry everything you need to create it. Start with soft gel extensions, followed by a flattering nude base, then add the scorpion with black polish and rhinestones.

Super Sharp Scorpio Nails
Astrologers emphasize that Scorpios are willful, courageous, and passionate. They make their own path and don’t easily back down. Moreover, they prefer honesty even when it hurts. Case in point, check out these long Scorpio stilettos. They are unique and startlingly bold, with crisp lines.
However, Scorpios are a water sign and therefore in tune with their emotions. So, even if they seem hard to approach at times, they are also very loyal and loving. It reminds us of the soft, raised texture and flowy feel of the designs here.

Black Is the Perfect Power Color for Scorpios
Black is a lucky color for Scorpios. It has potent meanings like prestige, elegance, power, intelligence, and sophistication. Think about it: a black tie event or a black credit card are things associated with wealth and superiority.
What’s more, black is a neutral color that goes with anything and everything. Even on nude nails, it’s never boring.

Scorpios Make Incredible Partners
Once you bond with a Scorpio, you’re on the ride of your life. This Zodiac sign may make potential lovers jump through hoops at first. But once they trust you’re being honest, they are sexy and devoted. Scorpios are straight shooters that you can rely on. They’ve always got your back and have a sense of humor even in the darkest times.
Oddly, this reminds us of different types of nail enhancements. If you’ve used acrylics in the past, you might be hesitant to build extensions with poly gel. Maybe you’re skeptical that it can offer anything you don’t already have. But poly gel is convenient in ways that acrylic will never be. It’s odorless and won’t dry until it’s cured in a nail lamp. Therefore, you have extra time for intricate designs. Moreover, it comes premixed and ready to use, making it extra user-friendly. Try it, make it jump through your hoops, and we bet you’ll soon have a new tool in your arsenal.

A Crystal Scorpion and Glittery Galaxy Nails
This stunning manicure reveals what a luxurious look you can enjoy with black nails for a Scorpio. Medium length stilettos shine with brilliant pops of color in the black glitter polish while the scorpion flashes like a polished diamond.
Subtle Scorpio Nail Idea
In reality, not every Scorpio wants to be the center of attention like a Leo even if they have strong opinions and aren’t easily swayed. Instead of having a scary arachnid on their fingertips, they may wish to celebrate more subtly. This Scorpio design retains the power color and a hint of celestial involvement with the sparkly starbursts.
Hidden Depths
As we mentioned, Scorpios may seem unwelcoming at first with their emotions hidden. But they have hidden fiery depths of passion waiting to be discovered, just like the flashes of red in this polish.
